One of my driving passions is travel. Some words of mine from the Echoes des Voyages website, that help capture some of my feelings of the romance and necessity of travel.
"It is not the achievement that matters, but our struggle and our progress toward our dreams. It is not our understanding, but our quest. It is not the destination that is important, it is the journey. Hang on to the memories of these travels, of these images and these sounds. The faint remembrances of encounters with other people, other lands, other times, and with our inner selves. " -- Lou Ann
It's the Journey, Not the Destination.
